Blow

Xu Chengkai didn't say anything special, but just asked Xia Jue how he was doing in other places, what school he went to, and how he got along with his classmates.

Xia Jue answered him one by one, simply asking and answering, but there was nothing else to talk about.

Since childhood, the two have never been strangers like this.

After thinking about it, Xia Jue took the initiative to ask about the other party's recent situation.Xu Chengkai was flattered, and said a lot at once, all of which were trivial things in life: the road at the gate of the community is almost finished, and the wages will be paid in a few days; his parents are in good health, and they still like to play mahjong...

"The food is getting cold," Wen Xiao stretched out his hand, and flipped his phone screen on the table, "What are you doing during dinner?"

"Brother Kai came to me suddenly." Xia Jue obediently picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of beef.

Wen Xiao asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"No way," Xia Jue sighed, "Just chatting."

Wen Xiao thought he was helpless: "You don't want to talk to him?" After all, Xia Jue and Xu Chengkai broke up last time.

Xia Jue shook her head: "It just feels like he has changed, a little strange."

Xu Chengkai's attitude towards him in WeChat was obviously cautious. Xia Jue never wanted his relationship with Xu Chengkai to become like this.After all, Xu Chengkai doesn't owe him, but he owes Xu Chengkai.For the care of Xu Chengkai in the past ten years, although he had moments of disappointment with Xu Chengkai, he was more grateful.

In any case, Xu Chengkai was the only one who made him feel the existence of "family love".

"People will always change," Wen Xiao said, "Change is not necessarily a bad thing."

Xia Jue sighed, still regretting what she said when she was parting.In fact, he should have been mentally prepared. Xu Chengkai may never understand him. There will always be a gap between people, which is normal...

He turned back on the phone screen.

Brother Kai: Xiaoyu.

Brother Kai: I still call you that. I’m used to it. I don’t think you resemble your mother.Last time you said that you are two people, in fact, I think so too, I believe you can make it if she can't.

Seeing this, Xia Jue was already stunned.

Xu Chengkai continued typing.

Brother Kai: I have also talked a lot with you, Brother Li Rui, these days. We have made up our minds that we don’t plan to stay in Chang County for the rest of our lives. We want to go out and walk more while we are young.

Brother Kai: And your disease.

Kai: Oh, no.

"The other party has withdrawn a message."

Brother Kai: My hand...I want to say, you are not sick.I checked all those things about you, and I even read some books. Although I didn't quite understand it, it was indeed written in the book that your condition is not a disease.

Brother Kai: In short, I used to say that you were sick. It was my fault. Can you forgive me?

Brother Kai: Anyway, you take care of yourself in the field.I just searched on the Internet, Xiaowen said that the school is really good, you study hard, try to get into a good university, and don't forget to thank you.When I'm free after a while, I'll come and see you.

……

Xia Jue raised her head in disbelief, her eyes were reddish and said, "Xiaoxiao, are you a koi?"

Just now when Wen Xiao said "change is not necessarily a bad thing", he was still regretting the harsh words he said to Xu Chengkai at the beginning, but he did not expect to get such a surprising result now.

"What?" Wen Xiao was puzzled.

Xia Jue murmured: "Brother Kai has really changed." Slowly pushed the phone over.

Wen Xiao read a long list of chat records, and was quite moved in his heart.

Xu Chengkai's character is reckless, impulsive, and single-minded. It is really surprising that he can say these words.At the same time, this also proves that he really has deep feelings for Xia Jue.

"Reply first." Wen Xiao handed back the phone to Xia Jue.

On the way back, he accidentally caught a glimpse of Xia Jue's WeChat chat list. The fifth one was Tao Tao, and the last message was yesterday afternoon.

"...When I was young, when the old village was being remodeled," Xia Jue took back her mobile phone and replied to Xu Chengkai while typing, recalling, "Every household tightened their belts and spent all their money on the house. Life was very difficult. One day In the winter of last year, I went to stay at Brother Kai’s house again. In the middle of the night, I ran into a rice thief, and we chased them all the way. I snatched back the rice bag, but accidentally rolled into a ditch, and nearly died of freezing.”

Wen Xiao listened silently, imagining his past life, feeling a little bored, probably because of his absence.

Xia Jue went on to say: "Brother Kai was crying at the time. He asked the adults to help me get up, scolded me severely, and said that I was not allowed to fight like that anymore, he is the elder brother, and he will protect me—that is. After that time, 12 years later, he really took care of me as his own younger brother."

"I know, you two have a very good relationship." Wen Xiao said.

Xia Jue nodded: "Brother Kai is a person with a lot of affection and commitment."

"Then if he had thought about it earlier," Wen Xiao suddenly smiled, "wouldn't it be nothing to do with me?"

Xia Jue was taken aback for a moment, and when she recovered from her emotions, she realized that the sour smell in the air was so strong that she could directly wring out vinegar juice.

"What are you thinking?" He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Brother Kai is a pure straight man who only likes women. I didn't treat him either... Anyway, you are my first love, and I have never liked anyone else."

Wen Xiao asked: "Has he been in love?"

"We've talked about it," Xia Jue said quickly, "We've talked about it three or four times."

"Can't settle down?"

"Well, he has a straight temper and is not very good at pleasing girls."

After hearing this, Wen Xiao said "oh", with a calm expression on his face.

"Don't be jealous," Xia Jue reassured him, "Brother Kai and I are really like brothers. He takes care of me, and I am grateful to him."

Wen Xiao said lightly: "I want to thank him too. If it wasn't for him, my wife would have died of freezing 12 years ago, and I'm afraid I don't even have the place to cry now."

Xia Jue blushed slightly after being called out, kicked him under the table, and then returned a message to Xu Chengkai.

Wen Xiao looked down at Xia Jue's lit phone screen, and couldn't understand one thing in his heart, that is, if Xu Chengkai treated Xia Jue as his own brother, why would he wear a "psychopathic" hat on Xia Jue? Hat—not in private, but to publicize it to so many people, and even threaten others with it, "protecting" Xia Jue with the words "killing people with mental illness is not illegal".

Xu Chengkai was too obsessed with the word "psychopathy", as if he was brainwashing him, or did he really just want to brainwash Xia Jue?

... What about himself?

But since Xia Jue didn't think about that at all, Wen Xiao didn't say any more.

Both of them ate very slowly during this meal.

After Xia Jue had just finished chatting with Xu Chengkai, by coincidence, as if they had made an appointment, Huang Xingze, who hadn't contacted him for a long time, also sent him a message, asking if he had received the money.

Xia Jue asked blankly: What money?

Huang Xingze said vaguely: More than 5000.In Alipay, you have a look.

Xia Jue opened Alipay and saw that Huang Xingze had transferred five thousand and six for him.He was even more strange, and asked: What do you mean?

Huang Xingze replied: It's nothing interesting, it's for you.

Xia Jue frowned and typed: You explain clearly, otherwise I won't accept it.

Huang Xingze replied: Don't take it down...you ask Wen Xiao.

Ask Wen Xiao?But what does this have to do with Wen Xiao?Xia Jue didn't figure it out, and showed Wen Xiao the chat interface in doubt.

Wen Xiao was looking through Xia Jue's wrong question book, took the phone, saw the note "Huang Xingze" on the top of the dialog box, and glanced at him lightly.

"Hooking someone again?" Wen Xiao asked.

"...I want you to read the content," Xia Jue said in a low voice, "What a seductive person, you have drunk all the vinegar in a radius of hundreds of miles."

Wen Xiao took it and flipped through it, and soon understood: Huang Xingze was returning the cash he took from his wallet at the beginning, the whole bill was five thousand and five thousand, and there were some scattered ones, the sum was almost five thousand and sixty.

"Take it." Wen Xiao returned the phone to Xia Jue and explained truthfully.

After being reminded by Wen Xiao, Xia Jue remembered this.He had approached Huang Xingze for this before, but at that time Huang Xingze said that the money had already been spent and he couldn't get it out. In the end, he had a fight with Huang Xingze, and he paid [-] to Wen Xiao first.

Unexpectedly, what Huang Xingze took away was not just 5000, but more than [-].No wonder, Wen Xiao guessed so quickly that Huang Xingze didn't pay back the money at all.

"But in that case, shouldn't you collect it?" Xia Jue struggled, "I can't take your money."

"Do you care about this? You are all mine," Wen Xiao made a few marks on his wrong question book, and said casually, "Come and read the questions."

Xia Jue wanted to insist, but couldn't refute the other party's sentence "You are all mine", so she sat down distressed and sweet.

"By the way, you seem to have told Huang Xingze about us a long time ago." Wen Xiao pointed out a question to him, and suddenly said, "Why didn't you explain it clearly?"

Xia Jue felt guilty and knew that Wen Xiao had seen the previous chat records between him and Huang Xingze.On the day Wen Xiao dropped out of school, when he told Huang Xingze that he and Wen Xiao were together, the two of them hadn't confirmed their relationship at all.

Therefore, Huang Xingze was too embarrassed to reply to the three words "Who are you lying to?", but looking at it now, it seemed that he was not firm enough.

"It's not that I didn't explain clearly," Xia Jue tried to explain the situation, "It's because we didn't..."

He suddenly couldn't continue.

Nothing yet?In fact, we kissed and hugged each other, so why not?Xia Jue couldn't help laughing.

They both found it interesting when they recalled the days when they teased each other through the window paper.

Wen Xiao said with a half smile but not a smile: "So you lied to him? Are you so sure that we can really be together? Are you so daring to show off?"

"It's not a lie, I'm sure," Xia Jue said with a confident look, "It's you, who obviously already likes me, and you've dragged on for so long."

"Well," Wen Xiao replied, "I'm not as brave as you."

Xia Jue was suddenly praised, a little embarrassed, and wanted to be humble.

"...Only a brave person like you dares to do the question I've said three times wrong again." However, the next second, Wen Xiao knocked him on the head and scolded him, "Say it yourself, what should I do?"

For a conic section question, Xia Jue's answer in the wrong question book was still wrong, but it was not wrong thinking, but carelessness and wrong calculation.

Xia Jue lowered her head, "Ah", and she could see it, and said anxiously, "I'll change it right away!"

"The monthly exam will be in two weeks." Wen Xiao gave him the pen and criticized mercilessly, "I didn't get many points in the first place, but now I will lose points if I do it right. At that time, even if I am the exam teacher , can’t let you pass.”

Xia Jue was so trained that he didn't dare to speak out, so he buried himself in the rework in frustration.Wen Xiao had a stern face and a stern expression, but he made milk for him and cut two more apples.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, they headed back to school.
